Rich and generous, a style that really stands out. The opulence combines with a balancing freshness through a gorgeous mix of creamy pineapple and mellow pink lady apples. Painted Wolf Wines is a great South African story: Established by fanatical winemakers and conservationists Jeremy and Emma Borg and inspired by the successful social dynamics of an African wild dog pack, this ‘pack’ of passionate grape growers, artists and conservationists celebrates wine and African wildlife. Jeremy crafts wines from Paarl, Stellenbosch and the Coastal Region with a distinctive South African feel, concentrating around two benchmark varietals in Chenin and Pinotage. This is all combined with organic or near organic practices, low yielding vines and stunning personalised artwork on all of the range.
